This is a traditional Spanish song for children. It compares a face to a house. The song has simple actions and uses lots of common vocabulary. You can make up any actions so that kids point to the body parts when they are mentioned. The ones I teach are a lot like the actions in the second video below, but I include the nose as the timbre (doorbell).

My preschoolers can do the actions to a song before they can sing all the words. So, when they are learning the song and they hear Yo tengo una carita they are gesturing to their face. Even if they cannot sing along yet, they associate the word carita with the meaning. As they learn the song, doing actions as they sing keeps children aware of what they are saying. Movement also helps children process language at a deeper level.

This Spanish song for children, like many traditional songs, has several versions. Here are four common ways to sing Yo tengo una carita. The words follow the videos, and there is another common version with no video at the end of the post.
